A hard A, eh?
people tend to default to ~~twut~~ twot, really throwing the A at 'em is fucking hilarious.
... like the difference between scone and scone.
Yeah, you say twot to an English person and they'll look at you like you've sprouted a third head.
The correct way to pronounce it is twat:
The twat in a hat came at me with a bat.
As opposed to:
The THOT whose a bot sent me her twot.

This is great, I have a curmudgeonly relative named Bob, and he would just hate to think that's funny

Hump
Also: dink
Edit: hehehehehehe
You must be a fan of The Princess Bride, or as I like to call it Prince Humperdink and that Blasted Woman Who Didn't Want to Get Married
Your edit is the whole reason I'm here :)
Engelbert Humperdinck ?
I always enjoyed the word putz. I typically use the verb format but it amuses me that every definition is so different lol.

Moob.
Hehe, moobies
As a mountaineer I enjoy the word "cwm". Sounds like it should nasty but in reality it's just Welsh for cirque.
How do you pronounce that, is it something like "coom" ?
I can totally get why it would sound gross

Scrunched
Longest syllable I can think of, rather ironic
I think 'scrunched' is the longest one I've seen in this post, I can't think of a longer one.
In a similar vein, it feels really wrong that 'abbreviate' is such a long word.
